Secrets & Sorcery | Countess Elizabeth, Count Elijah & Vindictus the Dark

Elizabeth felt her stomach clench at these words, for she knew it to be true. As much as she liked to believe the world was envious of her, she knew in the end that no one would save her. They would all enjoy watching her burn. “I was with child, Vindictus. Yours. Elijah doesn’t know this. I never told him. I never told anyone.” She hissed, her knees feeling terribly weak....

A Lost Smile |  Sir Godric and Hengist The Woodcutter

Yet in better attempts to reason, to show more of the shrewdness and the intellect that it was claimed he possessed. Godric thought himself somewhat clever on the basis he did retain a great deal of information, he  had traveled to learn many things but still not nearly as clever to be compared to his fellows. Even Helga had a great deal of cleverness in her simplicity. “A double edged sword that is, both do sting but I think lying is a greater fault.”

Believe in the Good | Hengist The Woodcutter and Lord Thaddeus 

“I said you were to not lose me so as long as you can understand Brutus is to be wed. He is no longer yours, or mine, but Lysandra’s.” His, in terms that he wouldn’t ever be with him the way he once was.

King's Game | King Lambert and Sir Adalhard

‘You are friends with Sir Godric, I presume? Tell me, Adalhard, what would you do were he deemed a traitor, or accused of something akin to it? Would you remain loyal to your friend, or to your King? And don’t lie to me.’

Drunken King | King Lambert and Sir Adalhard

Regardless of that he didn’t pick the glass up again, instead letting it sit, half-full, on the table, the grin melting down into a content smile. Lambert never wanted to be King, he never wanted to have these people tiptoeing around him as if he would strike with that unnecessary cruelty that most Kings were known for. No. He wanted to have friends, have food and drink, to enjoy himself and let his darling wife take over the general proceedings, though as of late he had come to learn that perhaps that wasn’t the best way to go, perhaps she was doing more bad than good.

In Hiding | Sir Brutus and Lord Thaddeus

  Letters with the King | Lambert and Sir Godric

I hope that we shall be able to talk freely when away from the sneaky eyes and prodding noses of the London court, you make well to stay away from it, I can only imagine the damage it could do to one’s personality, it seems there is little more than fathers wanting to wed their daughters, Lords and Ladies wanting more land than they know what to do with and a ridiculous amount of well-wishers for my lady wife who would no doubt jump at the chance to be the one to put us both in our graves.

Never Cry Wolf | Sir Adalhard and Josephine the Fox

“But where would be the fun in that, good sir? Now you my craft a tale when you leave of how you narrowly missed being swayed by the fae and other such forces in the dark forest.” She flashed a wry smile, very much aware that by her stature and features she too could be a fae and mortal men knew better to mix with such creatures.“That is a finer tale to weave up at the castle and you are better off treading that path of light, gentle knight.”

Reminiscent | Helga the Sweet and Sir Godric

Of Little Talks | Sir Adalhard and Sir Godric

“I was under the impression that asking of his beliefs in a greater good and God would stir a spiritual awakening of sort.”  Now Godric was aware that such understanding was a great deal to ask, even a great deal more to process but Lambert was to be a better man. “For that of our kin but for the king himself, he is of magic blood, did you sense it? I thought that it would be a moment of understanding.”

Adalhard stood where he was as Josephine once more took steps ahead of him. He had remembered the last time he took the chance to follow her. It had seemed that he had bothered her in doing so, and which ever way she turned, she was doing so to loose her tail. The knight couldn’t help but smile though when she turned around and beckoned him to follow her.

By your word and judgement I am entirely trusting of. If Yorkshire bodes such things, then it is a blessing and a much needed physical, as well as dietary, escape. Even you with your ancestry would not take well to the popular Scottish meal of Hagus, to save your own stomach, I shall not speak  of what this “delicacy” consists of.

Para with Adalhard | Of Little Talks

Them two, hardly the persons to speak for the rest of wizarding kind as between them they had more parallels then differences, and could not possibley speak to encompass everyone.“And that, Sir Krohl, is a very sad state of affairs to be interpreted as so.” His reply had been both candid then quick, and afterwards Godric found himself frowning further. It should not be so.

 She blushed as the youngest Ravenclaw continued to speak, recalling the smile Edric wore whenever it occurred to him to be genuine. “It is not that I am uncomfortable with it, it is…when we parted last it had been on mutual disagreement. Though it may have upset your uncle, he is far too stubborn to be pulled out of any state when he does not wish it. He likes to do things in his own time.”

IC Chat Darius , Countess Elizabeth

Darius grinned wolfishly and accepted the handkerchief, stuffing it in his pocket. He watched her as she admired the room and folded his hands over his chest once more when she initiated another commission. “I do not normally make such things,” he admitted, “but for a Countess? How can I say no?” A ‘B’ pendant; oh yes, that was painfully simple. He would be sure to make something worthy of her breasts, for it would lie just above them presumably. Mmm. He was far too dirty for his own good.

She was his and he was hers, with a single hungry kiss  he intended to remind her of this: this was the only pure love that he had ever known, had ever felt for any other human being. Vindictus, the bastard, could have not loved her like this. A kiss to forget all others.It was hardly a chaste kiss, but one that begged and pleaded to be whole, to be needed and loved.

[ London IC Chat ]

IC - Chat | Oh Good Lord   Hengist the Woodcutter, Lord Thaddeus 

Hengist raised his hands, amused at the other. Moving closer to the other, he placed his left arm around his shoulder. “Oh I see them all the same.” He winked, a laugh escaping his lips. From all the trouble he had gotten into, he knew what both worlds had to offer, or so related them together. “What is it that you see different in the two? Mead, and stories, are they not both shared in the same place?” 

IC - Chat | Heaven's Wine!   Hengist the Woodcutter, Lord Thaddeus , Sir Brutus

Hengist hiccuped right in unison with Thaddeus. He laughed at the thought of being an angel. How he was more frequently known as the sinful one of the pair. But the last thing he wanted was what Brutus had done. Lifting them as if they were mere pillows, the captain started to drag them to the first room. “Brutus! Why must you break this lovely time we are having together.” 

IC - Chat | Never A Goodbye   Qwara , Bernard

He thought they might be though, when they watched Qwara’s hips fight, and did not realize that she was a female. He had realized, and had been stricken with worry. “Qwara,” Bernard hissed, taking her elbow and pulling her, gently, into the shadows. “What were you thinking?! You were AMAZING, but what were you thinking? What if someone caught you?! I mean you can kick their ass, but you’re… what if they caught you?!” Bernard fussed like a mother, moving his arms around, frazzled.

IC- Chat | Oh You Fancy Huh?   Francois , Hengist the Woodcutter

They bade Us All Adieu    Count Elijah, Countess Elizabeth, Cliodna the Healer

“Elizabeth, I am here now, I will not let you die,” Cliodna murmured gently, as she tipped the potion into Elizabeth’s mouth. She would not have used her first name had she not been certain the Countess was unconscious and no one else was in the room to hear it.

Smiling, he toasted the man silently before taking his first sip. “I understand your situation, Heming. It is not easy to hide behind a taller man.” Figuratively and literally that was. “But do know, your reward will come one day. Your work does not go unnoticed.” The knight took another swing of his tankard, letting the drink go down slowly. He still had plenty to do the rest of the day, he couldn’t be found drunk in the halls of the castle.
